About Me

I am a wayward vagabond with nothing but the wind in my sails and a desire to experience as much as this world has to offer. I love diving into new cultures, backpacking through every landscape, interacting with locals, trying new food, and just having fun overall. For years I had heard about couch surfing, an am excited to finally join the sensation! My overall goal in life is to commune with great people, make new friends, and experience the spice of life that makes it all worthwhile.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Over the past couple of years, I have been touring the U.S. by car and seeing as much of the beautiful and diverse countryside as possible, but now my travels are going to be leading me to South America. Being that I won't have a car to sleep out of anymore, I need to make some friends, and if those friends have floors or couches or backyards I can sleep in, even better! I hate just being a typical "tourist". I want to meet local people who can show me cool local stuff, and introduce me to other cool local people. This is my favorite way to travel.

Unfortunately, I don't have my living arrangements, so I cannot host at the time, but perhaps that situation will change down the road. Until then, I'm down to meet up and hang out and help show you around while I'm in town.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help teach english, some music, outdoor skills, photography, various i.t. things, and perhaps more stuff that I cannot think of at the moment

I would love to learn whatever you have to teach. Where you live, new skills/hobbies, practice language, culture, anything really

I believe in sharing as much as possible. Especially culture. Food, religion, celebrations, common practices, anything really.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Not really sure what this is asking here.... I'm down to share anything. I can help with chores around the house, heavy lifting, i'm tall, so I can dust and clean things high up?
